UCL History?

Hi, I applied before the Oxbridge deadline for History at UCL, it’s been 6 months, and I’m yet to receive a response so far.

My predicted grades (A*AA) are above the entry requirements.

I know for competitive courses such as CS, Econ, and Law, waiting until Apr-May is not uncommon, but for a relatively less competitive course such as History, is this unusual?

For your predicted grades was it your Official AS grades that you took in May that your college decided?What specifically in end of years ?

Lots of people are still waiting to hear back from UCL for History, hang in there. Good luck.

Very normal for UCL. They regularly make offers right up until May - I got my offer (for a small and niche humanities course) in May myself!
